**Recipe**

Refrigerated Spicy Dill Pickles

2 lbs. pickling cucumbers

2 tsp pickling spice

2 garlic cloves, crushed

1 jalapeno pepper, minced

Brine:

2 cups white vinegar (5%)

1 cup water

2 Tbsp sugar

1 Tbsp pickling salt

Wash and trim vegetables; leave whole, halve, quarter, slice, or chip. Prepare brine to boil in a small stainless-steel saucepan; reduce heat, and simmer 3 minutes, stirring to dissolve sugar and salt. Tightly pack vegetables into 1 hot (1-qt/1-L) or 2 hot (1-pt/500-mL) jars. Pour hot brine over vegetables to cover. Cover jar with lid; let stand 1 hour or until cooled to room temperature. Store in the refrigerator for at least 1 month for best flavor or up to 3 months. (The longer pickles stand in refrigerator, the more flavorful they will become.)
